Pressure Mounting On Managers

26 September 2015

The pressure is starting to mount on some of the Premier League managers going into this weekend's matches.

In the early kick-off, Tottenham will be looking to bounce-back from the humiliation of their League Cup exit at the hands of arch-rivals Arsenal in mid-week. Spurs are playing host to league leaders Man City this afternoon, with the action at White Hart Lane getting underway at 12:45.

In the mid-afternoon matches, bottom-of-the-table Sunderland face a daunting trip to Old Trafford to fan Man United.

Meanwhile, today's match at Anfield will see both managers in desperate search of a win.

Tim Sherwood's Aston Villa are just a point above the drop zone as they travel to Merseyside while Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has admitted that he needs to turn their form around fast.

Also at three o'clock today, In-form Leicester host Arsenal, Southampton are at home to Swansea while Bournemouth go to Stoke and West Ham clash with Norwich at Upton Park.
